TLDR
In this article, the authors show that when two immiscible liquid drops, designated as phase-1 and -3, suspended in a third immiscibility liquid, phase-2, are brought into contact, the resulting equilibrium configuration is readily predicted from the interfacial tensions σij and spreading coefficients Si = σjk − (σij + σik).

Water and Oil Insoluble PEGDA-Based Microcapsule: Biocompatible and Multicomponent Encapsulation.

TL;DR: This letter utilizes the molecular weight dependent solubility of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate and droplet microfluidics to achieve direct encapsulation of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic cargoes in PEG microcapsules and confirms the validity of this approach.

Complex Emulsions by Extracting Water from Homogeneous Solutions Comprised of Aqueous Three-Phase Systems

TL;DR: This paper presents a simple and versatile method to generate complex emulsions based on phase separation in homogeneous droplets made up of aqueous three-phase system: poly(ethylene glycol), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and dextran (DEX) through extracting water from droplets.

Emulsion stabilisation by complexes of oppositely charged synthetic polyelectrolytes.

TL;DR: The feasibility of the coacervate phase spreading at the oil-water interface in terms of the relevant spreading coefficients is discussed and the predictions with experiment for a range of oils are compared.

Thermodynamik und Kinetik in der Nanosynthese

TL;DR: In this paper, we pladieren wir fur eine Unterscheidung zwischen thermodynamisch and kinetisch kontrollierten Szenarien, oder anders gesagt, nach einer Unterschreibung, ob sich ein Produkt bildet, weil es sich um den stabilsten Zustand handelt oder weil der dahin fuhrende Weg die geringste Barriere aufweist

Structured Nanoparticles from the Self-Assembly of Polymer Blends through Rapid Solvent Exchange

TL;DR: The theoretical findings provide important guidelines for designing appropriate experimental fabrication processes and demonstrate that this process is highly promising for the production of structured nanoparticles in a continuous and scalable way with independent and precise control over particle size, morphology, and composition.

Particle motions in sheared suspensions XII. Deformation and burst of fluid drops in shear and hyperbolic flow

TL;DR: In this paper, the deformation, orientation, and burst of fluid drops suspended in a liquid subjected to both hyperbolic and shear flow have been measured for a large number of fluid pairs covering a wide range of viscosity ratio p. At low deformation excellent agreement, with theoretical equations due to Taylor and Cerf was found.

Semipermeable aqueous microcapsules. I. Preparation and properties.

TL;DR: Methods have been developed for depositing thin stable semipermeable polymer membranes around aqueous microdroplets (mean diameter down to 5 μ or less) by either interfacial polymerization or interfacial coacervation.

Oil Lenses on Water and the Nature of Monomolecular Expanded Films

TL;DR: In this article, the condition for the formation of such stable lenses is that the spreading coefficient FS = γ1 − γ2 γ12 shall be negative and the magnitude of the linear tension at the lens boundary is also calculated.

Particle motions in sheared suspensions

TL;DR: In this article, the rotations executed by rigid rods, fused doublets of equal-sized spheres, and the transitory doublets formed by collision of equal sized spheres suspended in a liquid subjected to laminar shear, have been studied by making observations along the planes of shear.
